Robert Nicholson, one of the brothers behind the family-run farm, said: “We had a real pinch yourself moment when Channel 5 approached us with the idea for this event.


“We are still blown away by how many people have been watching the show and we honestly cannot thank all our supporters and farm fans enough because it is undoubtedly due to their interest in the show that this has come about.


“As a family which has been farming for more than six generations, we know the absolute need to diversify and pivot in response to the changing world – but even we could have never been prepared for what can only be described as a triumph in adversity, to now be announcing we are hosting such a prestigious event on the back of such a tumultuous year.


“We are beyond thrilled and cannot wait to see everyone there. We will absolutely be first in line to welcome you all.”
